It's all so weird, why did Yahoo Finance or whoever run the story in the first place, and how did the story even get to them, well before all the usual suspects?


Yahoo Finance ran it (automatically?) from a press release that his wife put out via a press release site: https://newsdirect.com/news/legendary-musician-husband-father-and-friend-david-crosby-passes-away-475391322

Usual suspects then scrambled to confirm the provenance of the press release as no one trusted that newsdirect.com was a site that had guards against being spoofed.

Sorry - didn't realise much of that was in the Post article already linked. But yeah, Yahoo Finance is used to churning out press releases from sites like newsdirect, which are usually things like company finance announcements.

I am now regretting not checking out those Crosby-Nash records when they were like $2

I get a sharp stabbing pain every time my thoughts turn in this direction.

It seems Crosby was working on a new record and was actually rehearsing the material the week before he died: https://www.nme.com/news/music/david-crosby-was-working-on-a-new-album-when-he-died-3385083

I try not to think about how much records used to cost--that's a whole thread topic in itself

for clemenza - the definition of a schooner is a sailboat with two masts, where the one in the back is taller than the one in the front.

Distinct from a ketch or yawl (other two-masted sailboats, distinguished from one another by the relative size and position of the masts).

five months pass...

Trane’s relentless pursuit of musical transcendence was legendary and inspirational.

Don’t be satisfied with where you are at now and keep pushing for that next level!

lol okay!

I saw that in the documentary, so great. A worthy rental for anyone who is interested.
